Description

Many of humanity's major challenges - for example formulated in the global goals of sustainable development - concern plants and food production. A growing population, climate change and increasing competition for freshwater, fertilizers and cultivable land increase the pressure of plant scientists and plant breeders to deliver innovations and new varieties that can meet these challenges. Applied research is virtually always based on achievements in basic research, this also applies in this case. Today's industry and agriculture is based on yesterday's basic research, and today's basic research will form the basis for future applications.
